Drive-time stories for stressed-out lawyers; the growing availability of books on tape provides great choices for journeys
Article Abstract:
Audio tapes are excellent entertainment for attorneys on long business trips and also distract children during long trips to vacation destinations. Many best-sellers are available on tape, as are many books of a legal nature including legal thrillers. Books can seem engrossing on a tape which are long-winded on a page. Library collections include many recorded books, and Recorded Books Inc, in New York, specializes in unabridged tapes available both for purchase and 30-day rental.
